Free and Frugal Earth Day Resources and Ideas

Earth Day is April 22nd, how are you planning to celebrate this year? Some of the ways we are celebrating Earth Day is by making fun crafts like this coffee filter Earth, taking a trip to a local recycling center, volunteering to picking up litter in our local park and going to watch the newest Disney Nature film, Monkey Kingdom (which also included a craft project and free journal page).

If you need some more ideas to celebrate check out these 10 Earth Day freebies for kids:

Earth Day Sort - Help kids learn the difference between reducing, reusing, and recycling!

Happy Earth Day Writing Activity - Kids of all ages can reflect on ways their family, school, and themselves can help keep the Earth healthy. Also encourages handwriting practice!

Earth Day Coloring Pages- Creative kiddos can color the Earth with their colors of choice, or follow the color-by-code page to add critical thinking to art hour.

Earth Day Poof! Subtraction to 5 - This Earth Day themed game builds fluency with subtraction facts to 5. It can be played in a small group or as a partner game. It is a fun way to practice those facts!

Love the Earth Mystery Picture Graph - Students will love discovering the mystery picture by coloring in the correct squares on the alphanumeric grid using the coordinates given. This is a great addition to an Earth Day or recycling

April 2015 Journal - A month of free journaling for learners age 8 to 100! Read about important historic, artistic, and current events that happened during the month of April - including J. Robert Oppenheimer's birthday and Earth Day on April 22nd. Then develop vocabulary and critical thinking skills.

I am thankful that you are having the book party and sharing with us some books that you use in your homeschooling Fieldtrips. My family enjoys the Usborne books we already own because they ha e vivid pictures that keep my son learning and interested!
